This book was released on 1991 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1939, this book was the first objective study of the anti-Chinese movement in the Far West, a subject that is as much a part of the history of California as the mission period or the gold rush. Some historians of the Asian American experience consider it to be, more than half a century later, the most satisfactory work on the subject. For this reissue, Roger Daniels has updated the bibliography to 1991.
